Welcome back to part 4 of our four-part series on the Finger Lakes wine region. Again I am joined by Richard Rainey, Managing Partner of Forge Cellars. He continues his reign of energy and gives us more information on Seneca Lake (the deepest, largest lake of the Finger Lakes). We will talk about why his wines have certain flavours and what the terroir has offered up. You will learn about a very surprising but amazing food pairing match for Riesling, along with conversations on petrol notes in Riesling, sustainable packaging etc! Enjoy!
